Item 3.01. Notice of Delisting or Failure To Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On November 22, 2023, ATIF Holdings Limited (the “Company”) received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) notifying the Company that the Company’s stockholders’ equity as reported in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended July 31, 2023 (“2023 10-K”), did not satisfy the continued listing requirement under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) for the Nasdaq Capital Market, which requires that a listed company’s stockholders’ equity be at least $2,500,000. In its 2023 10-K, the Company reported stockholders’ equity of $1,539,353, and, as a result, does not currently satisfy Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5550(b)(1).
The Notice has no immediate effect on the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq rules, the Company has up till January 8, 2024, or 45 calendar days from the date of the Notice to submit a plan to regain compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1). The Company intends to submit a compliance plan within the prescribed timeline and will evaluate available options to resolve the deficiency and regain compliance. If the Company’s compliance plan is accepted, the Company may be granted up to May 20, 2024, or 180 calendar days from November 22, 2023, to evidence compliance.
